TWO cars were involved in a crash on the Formby Bypass near Woodvale just before 9am last Thursday morning.

The collision involved a grey Rover and a blue Lexus. Both cars had been driving towards Formby from Southport during rush hour, when the Lexus swerved into the nearby trees, while the Rover veered across on to the other side of the bypass.

An ambulance was called, and the driver of the Rover, a female, was taken to Southport District General hospital, where she was treated for whiplash.
